Problems: 

The f/8 focus is not used enough - but eventually they figured out how to point the telescope.

Comments: 

COSMOS worked fine. Target acquisition is a pain, but thew spectra look wonderful.

The hybrid Chilean/English keyboard takes some getting used to.

I would like to start afternoon calibrations about 3:30 PM. I will need the CuAr cal lamp in the afternoon.
